Unusual Christmas Trees And Their Decor
Need an additional Christmas tree or just want a new version of something traditional? Get an unusual Christmas tree – one made of ornaments suspended to the ceiling or a ladder, an artwork of vintage brooches and rhinestones, a wall-mounted tree of branches and ornaments, an old tree stump with ornaments, a pegboard with them, some string lights shaping a tree right on the wall or a frame from IKEA where you can hang some ornaments shaping a tree. The possibilities here are endless, if you don’t feel like these options, just turn on imagination or find some tutorials on the web and create your own unforgettable one!

Traditional Christmas Tree Decor
Prefer classics? Then take a usual Christmas tree – a green, flocked, white, colored one and decorate it in a more traditional way. Choose a theme or a color scheme, the most traditional colors are green, gold and red but of course you may go for any color palettes, from blue and silver or black and white to bold pink and emerald, orange, red and fuchsia and so on. Coordinate the color scheme with the color of your tree – if you are decorating a bold pink or purple one, perhaps contrasting white or silver ornaments will look better than extra bright ones. Basic bauble ornaments and some lights will be enough to create a Christmas tree that will create a mood and an ambience but if you want a bolder look, create layered decor. Use elements of the style you’ve chosen: burlap and plaid ornaments or ribbons for a rustic tree, pinecones and faux greenery for a woodland one, shiny crystal snowflakes and silk ribbons for a glam one, oyster shells and starfish for a coastal tree and so on. Vary the size and shapes of the ornaments, play with texture and colors (3 and more coordinating ones always look better than just two), crown your tree with a catchy tree topper and add something personalizing and Merry Christmas!
